This is a mash up from Wednesday to today!

Monday = CraZy Sock Day!!!
Tuesday = CraZy Hair Day!!!
Wednesday = Sports Team Support Day!!!
Thursday = CraZy Hat Day!!!
Friday = Remember to wear your Walk-a-thon shirts!!!

Aiden proudly wore his Tiger Cub hat for CraZy Hat Day at school.  He was very responsible and it came home just as nice as it was when he left.
Our neighbor Janie was nice enough to come over and watch the girls for about an hour and a half so I could go to City Park for the Walk-a-Thon.  Although I did see a lot of running going on....LoL...

 I loved the "Minion" theme for the Walk-a-Thon, the shirts turned out super cute!

 We walked and ran and jogged for 30 whole minutes.  There were tables set-up with water bottles for all the kids, labeled so the kids knew which one was theirs.  Aiden was super red by the end of the 30 minutes, but he completed 21 laps (I think) and raised $72.50 for his school.  I am Very Proud of Aiden!

This morning we went out to the Imagination Library Festival at Mayfield Farm.  We got to check out the giant slides, the popcorn popper, and the giant tire swings.  There was a nice ceremony and kids from Ingleside singing too.
Aiden was brave enough to go on the really big slide with his Daddy... Emma thought about it and then went back to the smaller slides on the other side of the hill.

All of the kids got a bag with goodies in it and Aiden had to have his picture taken with the corn before we left.

If Goodwill doesn't have what you are looking for in a Halloween costume, make The Dollar Store your next stop.  They have ninja, knight, FBI, disguise glasses and much more.  Even if you bought 10 items to create your look it's still a great deal!!!  Aiden and I actually stopped in today to get some supplies for our next Cub Scout meeting.  I found a couple of games to play and wanted to make a Bobcat Badge poster, but we needed a couple of things. One of our games required a large die.  I had found an article suggesting making one out of cardboard, but hey when they are 2/$1 I say that is thrifty enough.  We did buy a package of round stickers to accent the die with to make them easier to read, but these will come in handy in the future too, I am sure.  Aiden was more than happy to help and he put the stickers on both die for me.  We also needed a Bobcat reference board for our game.  At first Aiden was resistant to help, but once he saw I had the stick glue out and he found some glitter to add, it was on and he was having fun.  I am hoping the games we play on Tuesday are a hit and we can ge the den past the Bobcat badge so we can move on to the more fun Tiger Trail achievements.
